Key Features

PIA started preparing and researching about TOEFL courses since 2008 and eventually opened its own TOEFL program.

The program aims to prepare students for their plans to enroll in graduate schools abroad, particularly in making themselves become acquainted with academic and professional English.

In the event that a student-applicant fails to pass a required cut-off score in any of the modules, he/she is advised to continue with the various EFL courses.

If only 1 student qualifies in a given Test Module class, he/she is provided with 6 hours of 1on1 class only. If there are only 2 students in a group, 4 hours of 1on1 and 3 hours of 2on1 class are given.

It is highly recommended for students to take Power EFL course for at least 8 to 12 weeks before taking TOEFL module.
